On Sunday, November 28, 2021, at 1 p.m. U.S. Pacific Time, 4 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time, the U.S. Transhumanist Party invited Nell Watson to discuss the ethics of human augmentation and artificial intelligence, particularly in light of recent world events, as well as approaches for overcoming polarization in contemporary societies.
Tech ethicist Nell Watson led the discussion in considering ways humans interact, and how those ways could be better. Among key themes were 1) how and why transhumanists can and should safeguard their reputations as they share their message with others, 2) how AI is on the verge of surprising the general population with its capabilities, 3) how ground rules for interaction could help reduce polarization, and 4) where governments' fine line is between appropriately and inappropriately motivating desired behavior.
Eleanor ‘Nell’ Watson is an interdisciplinary researcher in emerging technologies such as machine vision and A.I. ethics. Her work primarily focuses on protecting human rights and putting ethics, safety, and the values of the human spirit into technologies such as Artificial Intelligence.
Nell serves as Chair & Vice-Chair respectively of the IEEE’s ECPAIS Transparency Experts Focus Group, and P7001 Transparency of Autonomous Systems committee on A.I. Ethics & Safety, engineering credit-score-like mechanisms into A.I. to help safeguard algorithmic trust.
She also chairs EthicsNet.org - https://www.ethicsnet.org/
- a community teaching prosocial behaviors to machines, CulturalPeace.org - https://www.culturalpeace.org/
- crafting Geneva Conventions-style rules for cultural conflict, Endohazard.org - https://www.endohazard.org/
- a hazard symbol project for informing consumers of endocrine disruptors, and Pacha.org - https://www.pacha.org/
- connecting a network of service providers to help enable the automated accounting of externalities (shifted costs) such as pollution.

What We Stand For: The U.S. Transhumanist Party is focused on policy rather than politics as conventionally defined. We value initiatives and reforms that will improve the human condition for as many people as possible, with as much beneficial impact as possible – and without regard for scoring political points or defeating “the other side”. We seek to achieve the next, greatest era of our civilization, which will require constructive solutions to the problems of our current era. All of these problems can be solved if we look away from the political trench warfare of today and up toward a far brighter future.
